Dystopian
The Pear and The Pine
The Summer of 1941 was perhaps the last true period of happiness I had in my life. Gosh. When I see those words put down it doesn't feel like it was that long ago. It was a beautiful, magical time. It was before the war came home and before we lost what innocence we had left to lose.

My learnings as a market researcher
Learning is the only way to move forward, the err to your growth is the belief that you know everything. The beauty of existence lies in challenging your limits, pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and performing the tasks that scare you and motivate you to become a better version of yourself. Life has its unique ways of compelling you to embrace the unknown and forging you to uplevel your game.

The Search For Andromeda
Chapter Six: Shadows of the Future The lab was a graveyard of silence, the only sound being the soft hum of the singularity core as it pulsed with contained energy. Elara leaned heavily against the console, her body and mind drained from the ordeal. They had won—if this could be called a victory—but the shadow of what they had unleashed lingered, casting a pall over the lab.

Chapter Five: The Last Stand The lab was a hive of activity, a cacophony of alarms, data streams, and the hum of high-powered machinery. Elara stood at the center of it all, her gaze fixed on the holographic display that dominated the room. The ripple—the entity, The Devourer—was still approaching, though its speed had been slightly diminished by the EMP pulse. The delay was a temporary reprieve, but it had bought them precious time.

Revival 5
Aaron took his time examining the cathedral exterior, its grounds, and the men standing guard at the entrance. He recognized several of them from their encounter earlier in the day. They were members of the Deacons, enforcers for this strange religion. He was unimpressed with the lack of training they exhibited during their first encounter. These clowns were just a group of neighborhood bullies, acting as though they controlled the world. If they didn’t have guns, Aaron was confident he could easily take them out.

See the Light Chapter 2 Part 6 Song for the Souls
I played three more songs, pouring myself into each note, my voice weaving through the room. As I sang, I barely noticed the bar filling up, more and more faces turning toward me, their eyes wide with curiosity and something close to wonder. The foreign girl who played the instrument—wasn't that how they saw me? I almost smiled at the thought.

Chapter Four: The Devourer's Call The lab’s lights dimmed as the energy surge reverberated through the systems, casting eerie shadows across the room. Elara’s heart pounded in her chest, the cold presence she had sensed now growing stronger, more defined. The ripple in the data was no longer just a glitch—it was a harbinger, a sign that something immense and malevolent was on the move.

Chapter Three: The Awakening Storm The glow of the singularity faded from the screen, but the pulse of its energy remained in Elara's mind. She could feel it—a constant hum, a reminder of the knowledge now embedded in her consciousness. As she moved through the lab, the weight of her decision settled over her like a shroud.

Chapter Two: The Dawn of the Unknown Elara stood frozen before the being of light and darkness, her mind a whirl of questions and fears. The landscape around her seemed to pulse with the same rhythm as the singularity she had just encountered, as if this world itself was alive, breathing in tandem with the ancient knowledge she had unlocked.
